    Apparently finalized a few days ago. But the news was published in The Onion, so you can be forgiven for thinking it might be satire.

      Yeah, they’re posting it all over the place. I’ve seen other platforms also posting it everywhere.

        the fact that onion is posting something all over the place does not mean anything, they seem to be taking it as seriously as all their other news

        this is the freshest info: https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/20/business/infowars-alex-jones-the-onion.html

        they are waiting for a judge, they have a wish, but they own/rent/control anything at this time.

        “other platforms” reposting that does not mean anything. same as it did not mean anything when they posted the same false information 18 months ago:

        if anything, it is nice example of why we need professional media collecting and verifying news before releasing them and why random people shouting on social networks are not news
